Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics: May 2015
http://bublhead.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics. Liberal Middle Aged White Guy with a degree in History. Sunday, May 10, 2015. The Insanity of Defending Discrimination of Gays based on Religion. So people who chose a particular religion, insist that their choice gives them the right to discriminate against people who don't have any choice about their Sexual Orientation. Because, they say, Homosexuality is a choice. Some would call that cognitive dissonance. I call it insanity. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Guest essa...

Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics: June 2011

Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics. Liberal Middle Aged White Guy with a degree in History. Friday, June 3, 2011. What would Jesus do? I was raised as a white middle class Christian boy. A Southern Baptist. I attended First Southern Baptist Church in Colorado Springs. We had revivals and preachers preaching fire and brimstone. I was in the choir. We sang twice on Sunday, we even sang for the prisoners in the Colorado State Penitentiary. I can't tell you when I became a doubter. I went to those back then.

Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics. Liberal Middle Aged White Guy with a degree in History. Saturday, July 28, 2012. Its been interesting to watch Governor Romney head off on his foreign tour. He didn't start out well, insulting his British hosts before he even got there and then committing two verbal gaffes that had the British press in a feeding frenzy. What I find interesting in all this is what is says about Governor Romney. Sunday, July 15, 2012. Where are you Liberal Mainstream Media. Would it cl...

Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics: October 2014

Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics. Liberal Middle Aged White Guy with a degree in History. Tuesday, October 7, 2014. The Wrong side of History. I was struck by the paucity of outrage at the Supreme Court’s action (or inaction). Across the nation, elected officials seemed to accept what had happened and within hours people were getting married in states where such a thing seemed impossible not 10 years ago. And now they are attacking a woman’s right to chose and American’s right to vote. Tax cuts do an...

Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics. Liberal Middle Aged White Guy with a degree in History. Saturday, July 5, 2014. An Armed Society is a Polite Society. In an on-line discussion I was participating in, one of the commenters stated categorically that an Armed Society was a Polite Society. And this person was dead earnest about their belief. That has stuck with me as emblematic of the insanity of the current gun control debate. I learned a lot of my libertarian leaning from Heinlein and his books. BREAK...

Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics. Liberal Middle Aged White Guy with a degree in History. Saturday, March 30, 2013. Why are we still talking about Gay Marriage? I really don’t understand. I don’t understand how people who profess, as part of their larger political philosophy, that they want to get government out of people’s lives insist that the national government should make a law for everyone defining marriage. Could there be a more intrusive example of government intrusion into our lives? Ignorin...

The devolution of the modern Republican party continues to amaze me. There have been literally years of stupidity where the Birther. Fringe of the Republican. Party sacrificed all seriousness, where DONALD TRUMP rode the birther. Not a fringe, that not out on the. A serious chunk of the Republican Party. Thursday, October 20, 2011. So now Republican...

Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics: Religion, Conservatism, and Facts

Ruminations of a Junkie for Politics. Liberal Middle Aged White Guy with a degree in History. Tuesday, August 21, 2012. Religion, Conservatism, and Facts. There are times where I wonder what planet these people are from, but then I remember they are Christian Conservatives and it all makes sense. Not surprisingly, many people on both sides of the aisle reacted to such an incredibly stupid remark. Also not surprisingly, some people felt compelled to support Rep. Akins and say that he was right. It’s...
